Last week we reported what Yellowstone National Park advises visitors as to what they should be aware of when dealing with grizzly bears, as the park is conducting its seasonal grizzly studies amid a recent fatal grizzly attack. For Sheridan-area residents, according to WGFD Information Officer Warren Mischke, communities like Big Horn, Story and Dayton should also take certain precautions to avoid bear conflicts.

Restoration of the South Park area in south Sheridan has been an ongoing effort by the City over the last several years. Stream enhancements and a pathway extension project will most likely be the next improvements made to the area.
